12/2/2025
Dear Campus Community,
Please find attached the Enrollment & Retention Management Update for December 2025. In addition to reporting enrollment targets, we are also providing a list of important dates and recruitment activities. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need more information.
Enrollment:
This chart below reflects our Spring 2026 numbers as of December 2, 2025.
In addition, I've attached the CUNY Dashboard Report, also dated 12-2-25.
This report compares our enrollment with the other CUNY colleges.
Please note there has been a slight adjustment to the Spring 2026 enrollment targets to align with the financial targets that were submitted to CUNY.
Enrollment and Retention Reminders:
Readmission Fee - the college is waiving the $20 readmission fee for Spring 2026 to remove that financial barrier for students who wish to return.
Admissions Funnel
The admissions funnel indicates the number of student applications vs admitted vs committed to the college as compared to last year.
Admissions staff work on contacting students to help them move through the funnel.
